Free for every child. Premium for curious parents.

KindyWords’ core belief is simple: every kid deserves a personal writing mentor. The mentor itself — the voice cheer, the marked-up page back, the gentle one-thing-to-try feedback, the never-guess safety rule — is FREE, for every child in your family, forever. The paywall never touches your child’s mentor: the voice cheer, the marked-up page, the gentle feedback, and the never-guess safety rule are the same on every plan, and the free plan allows 3 pages a day for each child enough for everyday practice.

Premium is for you: deeper insight into how your child is progressing, digests that save you attention, and conveniences. It’s also what keeps the mentor running — every reply uses real AI reading, voice, and image services, and Premium support covers those operational costs so the mentor can stay FREE for every child.

Prices are in US dollars. A single global price is what lets us keep the mentor free for every child in all eleven countries we serve — we’d rather put the effort into the mentor than into eleven price lists. Your bank converts at its own rate, and some cards add a foreign-transaction fee; KindyWords never adds one. If a price ever changes, we’ll give you reasonable notice first. Progress is tracked openly — we never sell what isn’t built. The mentor is always free for every child.

The plans

“Your first child” means the first child you added to your account. Basic’s insight features — the weekly digest, progress reports, practice packs and history charts — follow that child; Premium’s follow every child in the family.

About that 12 months, plainly. Children’s data is deleted on a 12-month schedule — a privacy commitment we won’t quietly drop — so the album is a rolling twelve-month window, not a permanent archive. You can download the record from the parent portal any time, and it holds every word your child wrote and every reply the mentor gave. The original page photos are not in that file, so if there’s a page you want to keep forever, save or print it from the album while it’s still there.

From less than 30¢ a day. Basic on the annual plan works out to about 27¢ a day; Premium annual is about 44¢ a day — for every child in the family, and the family circle too. And every Premium family does something bigger: it covers the real running costs of a dozen or more families on the free plan, keeping the mentor free for every child.

Choose your plan

Compare the plans

The child’s mentor is identical on every plan — the difference is what you, the parent, get, and how long the keepsake journal is kept.

Always free, on every plan — because rights aren’t features

• Export your child’s data.
• Delete your child’s data, permanently.
• Revoke consent at any time.
• Automatic retention deletion — the schedule protects your child regardless of plan.

Why is the free plan really FREE?

Because the mission is the point: every kid deserves a personal writing mentor, and a family’s budget shouldn’t decide whether a six-year-old gets cheered on. The free plan is not a trial and does not expire. Premium families and the occasional coffee cover the real costs — every reply uses real AI reading, voice, and image services — so choosing free never needs an apology. If KindyWords makes your fridge door prouder, the practice email will include a small buy the mentor a coffee link (USD 3) — entirely optional, never attached to streaks, reminders, or anything your child sees.
